“This competition will give developers, start-ups and anyone who has an idea for a great app, the opportunity to gain a foothold in the app industry, while also earning recognition and making contacts within the telecom industry”, the statement said.
The winner of the student category in 2013 was Portugal’s GreenSpark, which offered a solution based on energy efficiency with a truly global reach. The UK’s TboxApps was the winner in the company category. Their solution was based on usage patterns in order to get access to instant messages and quickly get help.
For this year, the first prize is EUR 25,000 while second prize is EUR 10,000, and special recognition for innovation supporting Technology for Good. The third to 10th prize will get diplomas and honorary mentions.
